Abstract
This paper describes the design of a folding bench-top hood that is readily moved and can be stored in a standard laboratory cabinet. It is of a truncated triangular footprint with folding sides and top providing face openings of 16 x 18 or 24 x 18 inches with nonturbulent air flow exceeding 80 ft/min. In its folded form it takes up little space. Construction is of clear acrylic.
